In December, I'm flying to Bali with a layover in Dubai, how do I avoid the Taliban in our Afghani airport? Been a while since I have flown international.

What airline? If you are flying United, check in and clear security at B, then ride the train to the terminal you are flying from. If it is an airline only going out of CDE, you might just have to bite the bullet and go early. You could get dropped off at B and ride the Disney train in the basement over to your terminal, but with as slow as that train is, you might not save any time.

All lounges are stupid packed.

People bad with money get the "top tier" CC for any airline simply so they can get free checked bags the 2 times they fly a year along the the "extra points" for eating out.
Then these slobs take over the lounges with their sex trophies being loud and obnoxious while the airlines have no motivation to improve service because they have no competition.

There are times I'll actually skip the lounge and go to a bar to get work done because it's quieter.

Lol and it only cost me $500. I'm in there chatting up the bartender so you can't get a beer, taking entire trays of those little sandwiches, putting each piece of my luggage on a separate chair, and bragging about my trip on speakerphone. Also, I brought my 'service' dog. See you next time!
